If you are curious about what mailagent does to your mail, you have two
options:
* Look at your "agentlog" file, with a log level set to 9.
* Get a summary of all the actions performed by running:
mailagent -summary
This last option is only possible if you have initialized the statistics
gathering process by creating a ~/var/mailagent/mailagent.st file (under
the default setting from ~/.mailagent).
You will get a clear picture of your processing, by seeing which rule
match, how often, in which state, etc... You will also know how many
times you SAVE or DELETE messages for instance.
Actually, mailagent statistics are triggered by a simple
mailagent -s
command, the letters given after in the {u,m,a,r,y} set being options
that alter the output given by the command.
* Look at the ~/.bak occasionally to make sure no error is pending...
